AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BLACKSBURG VA
135 PM EDT FRI JUL 6 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A HOT UPPER HIGH WILL CONTINUE OOZING EAST THROUGH THE WEEKEND. AN
UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE COMBINED WITH WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES
AND THUNDERSTORM OUTFLOW WILL KEEP RAIN IN THE FORECAST THROUGH
THE WEEKEND. A COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED AT THE BEGINNING OF NEXT
WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 8 PM THIS EVENING/...
AS OF 1000 AM EDT FRIDAY...

DRIER AIR IN THE MIDLEVELS WILL CONTINUE TO SINK SOUTH FROM
NORTHERN VA AND PENNSYLVANIA THROUGH THE DAY. A CLUSTER OF STORMS
HAS DEVELOPED JUST WEST OF STAUNTON ALONG THE BOUNDARY BETWEEN
THESE TWO AIRMASSES. WILL NEED TO WATCH ANY OUTFLOW FROM THIS
STORM FOR DEVELOPMENT OF ADDITIONAL STORMS INTO LYH THIS LATE
MORNING OR EARLY AFTERNOON. BEST CHC FOR STORMS TODAY AGAIN WILL
BE NW NC AND OTHER HIGH ELEVATION SPOTS IN THE SW CWA...ALTHOUGH A
FEW CELLS COULD DEVELOP ALONG THE BOUNDARY AS IT SINKS SOUTH
TODAY. FEW MORE CLOUDS THIS MORNING...WHICH WILL DISSIPATE MAY
HOLD TEMPS BACK ROA/DAN A FEW DEGREES COOLER THAN YESTERDAY'S
TEMPS.

AS OF 730 AM EDT FRIDAY...

THE UPDATED FORECAST TAKES INTO ACCOUNT MORE CLOUDINESS THIS
MORNING...WITH AN INCREASE IN POPS ACROSS THE REGION BY MIDDAY TO
MID AFTERNOON. 06Z NAM/00Z ECMWF SHOW A DROP SWD OF STORMS IN THE
15-21Z TIME FRAME FROM SE WV EAST TO LYH SOUTH TOWARD THE NC/VA
BORDER BY DUSK. THERE IS A SHARP GRADIENT ON WV THIS MORNING
BETWEEN DRIER AIR MOVING INTO NRN VA AND THE HIGHER MOISTURE IN
THIS REGION.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION AS OF 335 AM EDT FRIDAY...

MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE TODAY WILL BE CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT...WHEN
AND WHERE AND HOW MUCH COVERAGE. UNLIKE THURSDAY...THERE IS NO
UPSTREAM CONVECTION AT THIS TIME...HOWEVER THERE IS A VORT MAXIMA
MOVING SOUTH FROM WRN PA...AND THE 00Z NAM HAS THIS PICKED UP WELL.
ALOFT THE RIDGE IS GOING TO EXPAND EWD...AND COULD CAUSE SOME
CAPPING TO HOLD OFF DEVELOPMENT. THE NAM SHOWS MORE COVERAGE FURTHER
EAST THAN THE GFS AND THE 00Z ECMWF SEEMS TO AGREE WITH THE NAM.
WILL BRING IN THE BETTER RAIN THREAT IN THE MTNS AROUND MID
AFTERNOON BUT COULD BE SOONER AS THE SHORTWAVE PASSES SOUTH OF
VIRGINIA BY 00Z SAT. WILL SHIFT SLIGHT CHANCES EAST TO THE PIEDMONT.
LINGERING BOUNDARIES AND WEAK CONVERGENCE IN THE LOW LVL WIND FIELDS
SHOULD LEAD TO CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT CWA WIDE...BUT AGAIN WILL SEE
A BETTER COVERAGE OVER THE MTNS. THE SVR THREAT LOOKS LESS THAN
YESTERDAY BUT PULSE SEVERE IS POSSIBLE...WITH MICROBURSTS AND
MARGINALLY SVR HAIL. MBE VECTORS SHOWING MOVEMENT OF STORMS TODAY TO
BE SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY FROM NORTH AND NORTHEAST TO THE SOUTH OR
SOUTHWEST. FLOW LOOKS JUST FAST ENOUGH TO LIMIT FLASH FLOODING
CONCERNS.

SIMILAR TO THURSDAY...ANTICIPATE SHOWERS AND STORMS TO FADE AFTER
SUNDOWN...AND WILL SEE CLEARING SKIES OVERNIGHT WITH MAYBE CIRRUS
LINGERING.

THE OTHER ISSUE TODAY WILL BE HEAT. MODELS EXPAND THE HIGH PRESSURE
RIDGE EWD AND THIS WILL BRING A FEW DEGREES HIGHER ON TEMPS. THE
HEAT INDICES SHOULD STAY BELOW 105F...GIVEN THE FLOW WILL BE NW TO
NE WHICH WILL KEEP DEWPOINTS DOWN SOME. THE OTHER THING THAT MAY
INHIBIT THE WARMUP WILL BE CLOUD COVER FROM CONVECTION BUT THIS WILL
BE HIT OR MISS. FOR NOW WILL FORGO A HEAT ADVISORY BUT MENTION IN
THE HWO ABOUT HEAT INDICES REACH 100 TO 104F IN THE PIEDMONT THIS
AFTERNOON.

TONIGHT... THE SFC PATTERN IS THE SAME EXCEPT WARMER ON THE
THICKNESSES...SO LOWS SHOULD BE A DEGREE OR TWO MILDER THAN THIS
MORNINGS WITH LOWER 70S EAST AND UPPER 60S WEST.

&&

.SHORT TERM /8 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
AS OF 315 AM FRIDAY...

BIG BUBBLE OF HOT HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE REGION
THROUGH SATURDAY...WITH PROGRESSIVELY HIGHER TEMPERATURES. 850 MB
TEMPERATURES ACROSS THE AREA MAY RANGE FROM 22 TO 24 C. EAST OF THE
CREST OF THE BLUE...PLAN ON HAVING FORECAST HIGHS AT OR ABOVE THE
CENTURY MARK FOR ALL LOCATIONS...WITH LOW TO MID 90S ACROSS THE
MOUNTAINS. RECORD HIGHS ARE BEING FORECAST FOR PORTIONS OF THE AREA.
SEE THE CLIMATE SECTION OF THIS DISCUSSION FOR RECORD HIGHS FOR
SATURDAY. HEAT INDICES WILL TOP THE 105 DEGREE MARK FOR A FEW HOURS
GENERALLY ALONG AND EAST OF AN APPOMATTOX VA TO YANCEYVILLE NC LINE
DURING THE MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. A HEAT ADVISORY WILL BE POSTED TO
ADDRESS THIS. FOR BUCKINGHAM COUNTY VA...READINGS MAY TOP 110
DEGREES FOR A FEW HOURS. AN EXCESSIVE HEAT WATCH WILL BE POSTED FOR
THIS COUNTY. PRECIPITATION WILL CONTINUE TO BE IN FORM OF ISOLATED
TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS AND BE MAINLY ALONG AND WEST OF THE
CREST OF THE BLUE RIDGE WHERE DIFFERENTIAL HEATING WITHIN THE
MOUNTAIN VALLEY AND CRESTS WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR CONVECTION.

SATURDAY NIGHT...ANY DAYTIME CONVECTION WILL DECREASE IN COVERAGE
AND END THROUGHOUT THE EVENING HOURS. CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN WARM
AND HUMID THROUGH THE NIGHT WITH LOWS IN THE UPPER 60S ACROSS THE
MOUNTAINS WITH LOWER 70S EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY WE EXPECT A NOTED CHANGE IN OUR WEATHER
PATTERN. A BACKDOOR FRONT IS EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY HEAD SOUTH
THROUGH OUR REGION. WITH FEATURE WILL HELP BRING INCREASED COVERAGE
AND ORGANIZATION TO THE EXTENT OF SHOWERS AND STORMS...ALONG WITH
INCREASED CLOUD COVER AND A TREND TOWARD COOLER CONDITIONS BY
MONDAY...ALTHOUGH SUNDAY WILL STILL BE ON THE HOT SIDE. THESE COOLER
TEMPERATURES FOR MONDAY IN REALITY ARE EXPECTED TO BE READINGS MORE
IN LINE WITH OUR NORMAL SUMMERTIME TEMPERATURES. ON MONDAY...HIGHS
ARE EXPECTED TO RANGE FROM THE LOWER 80S ACROSS THE MOUNTAINS WITH A
MIX OF MID 80S TO AROUND 90 EAST OF THE CREST OF THE BLUE RIDGE.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AS OF 400 PM EDT THURSDAY...

MODELS/ENSEMBLES REMAIN AGREEABLE WITH THE LARGE SCALE PATTERN BUT
DISPLAY SOME DETAIL DIFFS THAT TYPICALLY HAVE LOW PREDICTABILITY.
EXPECT A MEAN RIDGE ALOFT TO PRESIDE OVER THE ROCKIES AND VICINITY
WHILE ALASKA MAY REACH WRN CANADA AND UPSTREAM FLOW STREAMS INTO
THE OVERALL TROF. MEANWHILE TROFFING WILL SETTLE OVER THE NERN
QUADRANT OF THE NATION TUE...WITH DIFFS IN TROF AMPLITUDE
IMPACTING THE EXACT LATITUDE OF THE LEADING SFC FRONT. GUIDANCE IS
NOW INDICATING THAT THE STRONG RIDGE OVER THE ATLC MAY TRY TO
BUILD WWD BY WED-THU...SERVING TO WEAKEN THE NERN TROF ALOFT AND
STALL THE SFC FRONT. THE ERN PART OF THE FRONT MAY EVEN BEGIN TO
LIFT NWD AS A WARM FRONT LATE NEXT WEEK.

UPPER RIDGE RETROGRADES WEST AND TROUGHING DEVELOPS OVER THE ERN
CONUS THIS PERIOD. MODELS REMAIN CONSISTENT THAT COOL DOWN WILL TAKE
PLACE FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK...SHAVING ABOUT 10 DEG C OFF THE 85H
TEMP AND TRIMMING SFC TEMPS TO A MORE TOLERABLE LEVEL.

THE BIG QUESTION...AS IS ALWAYS THE CASE AT THIS TIME OF THE
YEAR...IS HOW FAR SOUTH THE BACKDOOR FRONT WILL DRIFT BEFORE STALLING.
LONG RANGE MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE FRONT PUSHING INTO
GA/SC EARLY NEXT WEEK...WITH DIFFERING SOLUTIONS ON WHETHER THE
DEEPER MOISTURE CLEARS THE CWA.

FOR NOW WILL MAINTAIN CHANCE POPS THROUGH THE DURATION OF THE
EXTENDED. IF FRONT MOVES FAR ENOUGH SOUTH OF THE FCST AREA...MAY
BE ABLE TO TRIM POPS COMPLETELY FOR MID WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
AS OF 732 AM EDT FRIDAY...

CLEARER SKIES TONIGHT MAY LEAD TO IFR VIS/CIG AT LWB...BUT LAMP
GUIDANCE HAS BEEN TOO PESSISMISTIC REGARDING THESE CONDITIONS OVER
THE PAST SEVERAL NIGHT. FOR NOW WILL KEEP CONDS AT MVFR THERE.
ELSEWHERE MOSTLY VFR IS EXPECTED. AN ISOLATED STORM MAY DEVELOP
FOR THE REST OF THIS AFTERNOON ALTHOUGH THE THREAT WASN'T ENOUGH
TO INCLUDE IN THE TAFS. SATURDAY WILL BE SIMILAR WITH EVEN LESS OF
A CHC OF PRECIP WITH THE CENTER OF THE UPPER HIGH MOVING TO
CENTRAL KENTUCKY.

THE SAME DAILY WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST THROUGH THE
WEEKEND...WITH ISOLATE THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING WITH DAYTIME
HEATING...AND GRADUALLY DIMINISHING AFTER SUNSET. THE OTHER
CONCERN WILL BE PATCHES OF FOG DURING THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS...ESPECIALLY IN THE RIVER VALLEYS OF THE MOUNTAINS AND
ACROSS AREAS WHICH MAY RECEIVE RAINFALL.

A COLD FRONT LOOKS TO REACH THE AREA BY LATE SUNDAY INTO
MONDAY...WITH A BETTER THREAT OF ORGANIZED STORMS MONDAY AND
TUESDAY WITH COOLER AND DRIER CONDS ARRIVING WEDNESDAY.
